A Winner!

Why is this film not available? It is a stunning depiction ripped right out of the contemporary news headlines of the time. This film showcases the talent and beauty of Rae Dawn Chong, clearly one of the more underrated actresses in film. Powerful, gritty, erotic, troubling, insightful. We are used to the glamorous view of Brazil however in Boca one is faced with the dark side, hidden from most tourists. There are tremendously moving and powerful performances in this film and the lead as Boca is simply amazing. At times I felt that this man had lived through the nightmare world so stunningly portrayed, and yet of course he is an actor. That is the mark of a grand performance and there are more than a few in this film. Actors and actresses unknown to me prior to this movie move in and out dazzling as they do. Zalman King made a gem and it is almost unknown, that is a pity.

Very offensive

This movie is bad because there is to much nudity, not my favorite way to see Rae Dawn Chong in a movie, it doesn't give you a warning of what's in it, it just made me angry watching this and I feel like getting revenge on Boca, Rae Dawn Chong is beautiful but why did this movie had to exist? 0%

A young female reporter investigates the murder of children from the slums of Rio.

A young female reporter from the U.S. travels to Rio during Carnival to investigate the murder of children by death squads. She quickly gets involved in more than just reporting the story. Her curiosity carries her to the brink of disaster.

Intriguing and disturbing.

I just bought this video off of e-bay for four bucks, as I am a collector and it looked interesting. It turned out to be all that, and more. It was fascinating, intriguing, and disturbing, all done with a very simple storyline. Great acting from Rae Dawn Chong and all the supporting people. Absolutely wonderful cinematography. I don't know how to recommend this one. It is definitely not a "date" movie, nor is it your garden variety "Friday Night Popcorn" film. However, it is well worth the time.

Fascinating

I found this film riveting. The carnival setting, the mystery, the sheer horror of the story kept my attention. And I could hardly believe Boca was an actor, he seemed so real. It may or may not be the truth, but it felt like the truth. Made me feel very uncomfortable.

Wissenswertes
Mistakenly credited to Zalman King, the film does not identify any filmmaker or show any "directed by" credit in the opening or ending credits. King is credited only as an executive producer. An investigation carried out by the Brazilian blog Filmes para Doidos found that this movie is actually a "Frankenstein film" assembled with scenes from the Brazilian production Boca de Ouro (1990), directed by Walter Avancini, interspersed with some new scenes shot in Brazil featuring International actors such as Rae Dawn Chong, Martin Kemp, and Martin Sheen. These additional English scenes were directed by French filmmaker René Manzor, who at the same time was working with Zalman King on the cable TV series Foxy Fantasies (1992).
